BRITISH EMPIRE COLLECTION THROUGH KGV, Nice starter collection of a few thousand mint and used stamps in a 1936 Stanley Gibbons New Imperial album. Not much in the way of complete sets but we did note decent Canada, and mint Egypt #105-14 and 168-71 (the latter NH!) and lots of $10 and up singles. A pleasant little collection in a really nice album.
Estimate 500 - 750

BRITISH EMPIRE DEALER'S STOCK, Moderate sized show dealer's stock on "G & K" #102 display cards filling 13 red storage boxes (nine in a sturdy carrying case made especially to fit) plus an additional 4 counter books for souvenir sheets, booklets and blocks. The large majority of the cards are under $3 but there are moderately better items mixed throughout, though not much over about $50 Scott or thereabouts.

BRITISH AMERICA, Collection through George VI in two large 3-ring Scott Specialty albums plus a third binder with a few miscellaneous countries. The collection is mostly unremarkable except for the Canada, which is quite nice, especially the later material, which is virtually all mint. We note #83-84 among the late QV material, then the only stamp of significance missing is the 50¢ KEVII #95. And condition, except for the earlies, which are mixed, is generally F-VF. Nice lot, if only for the Canada (and the albums!).

The Asia includes very strong Ceylon with excellent QV issues (though mainly in only average condition) and good later material like mint #130-99, 213, 244, 254-58, and used #93 and 214. A very worthwhile lot, if only for the Ceylon (and the albums!).
